ECPR Press

ECPR Press, working in partnership with

The ECPR’s publishing arm, ECPR Press publishes cutting-edge research across all fields of political science, international relations and political thought, without restriction in approach or regional focus. The Press is also open to interdisciplinary work with a predominant political dimension.

Our thriving catalogue covers four book series: Monographs, Essays, Classics, and the highly regarded Studies in European Political Science. The ECPR Press imprint is published in partnership (from June 2017) with Rowman & Littlefield International (RLI). Drawing on the rich experience of both organisations, the Press will continue to develop and expand on the editorial policy and reputation it has built since its creation in 2005.

Drawn from the political science community, our knowledgeable editors deal with all proposals swiftly, efficiently, and professionally and oversee all projects until they are handed on to RLI for production. Manuscripts are copyedited, typeset, proofed, indexed and printed using RLI’s highly skilled production team in the UK and the US. Authors are then able to harness the combined expertise and reach of the marketing teams at both ECPR and RLI to ensure their book reaches the widest possible audience.
